Statistics in Medicine

Jaryd and Erik are joined by Eric Mackay, a Senior Statistician at Cytel. Eric has an academic background in econometrics and statistics, as well as extensive professional expertise in applied biostatistical analysis. We cover a variety of topics including why Eric left the economics profession, the difficulty of translating statistical concepts into practical terms, and whether international travel is overrated. Note: this episode contains the use of technical jargon which some listeners may find boring.
